  1. Sticky steering for days…then it cleared up.

    I've been experiencing this for the last month or so too! It was pretty subtle at first, but then when I was towing my trailer in late June, it was quite noticeable, and after that I noticed it on my regular commute too. I initially thought it was related to some work I had done where the...
  2. Cybertruck Laugh of the Day [⚠️ WARNING: NO POLITICS; MEMBERS BANNED]

    Well this is crazy! Truck split in half.. https://wtop.com/montgomery-county/2026/07/tesla-cybertruck-split-in-half-after-10-car-silver-spring-crash/ luckily only minor injuries all around, which begs the question if it was a bit of a lower energy crash, WTF is that truck splitting in half for?!
  3. Stiff steering after steering wheel removed/replaced for a procedure

    I had my truck into service a few weeks ago to have a noisy fan/sensor assembly replaced in the dash, which apparently required removal and replacement of the steering wheel. Most of the time since it has been serviced the steering has felt stiffer than before, needing quite a lot of torque to...
  4. DIY Gen1 R1T rear bumper camera replacement

    Dang. I wouldn't have minded the higher-res Gen2 camera on the back. Thx for trying!
  5. DIY Gen1 R1T rear bumper camera replacement

    I'm hoping Rivian eventually releases a service manual similar to what Tesla has done. I've set-up a user account with their portal and looked at a number of items for my out-of-warranty Model 3. A few things I've done myself, others I've been able to realize it was out of my wheelhouse and was...
  6. Strange calibration issue on gen2 Max Pack - service has not seen this before

    My Gen1 still has extra capacity at the top (albeit a bit less) after 100,000km and 2.5yrs! Still reads full rated range too.

    That’s the way I’d do it too
  8. Cybertruck Laugh of the Day [⚠️ WARNING: NO POLITICS; MEMBERS BANNED]

    I'm guessing he had it upright at the back of the box, and whatever "tie-downs" he was using snapped when the very heavy bandsaw kept trying to move forward during the abrupt braking. I always load stuff like that near the front of the box so it doesn't have room to tip over if something goes...
  9. Cruise Control No Longer Smooth

    I think a number of us in this thread have Gen1, so I'm not sure if this would be related to the autonomy stuff they are doing on the Gen2s...
  10. Cruise Control No Longer Smooth

    I've been noticing this for many months, I don't recall exactly when it got worse (I've always noticed it a bit), perhaps it was around November. It is pretty annoying now and generally the worst when I don't have anyone in front of me for it to 'follow'. It is just hyper-sensitive to trying to...
  11. Cybertruck Laugh of the Day [⚠️ WARNING: NO POLITICS; MEMBERS BANNED]

    As many have said on Reddit, no way that is 26 degrees; maybe 26%. I would have zero concern taking my R1T on that with my all seasons lol. Or my previous Subaru Forester. I am very curious what actually happened, because he clearly didn’t tell the full story.
  12. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    Great thanks! I watched quite a few of your videos and they were very helpful. I'm pretty sure I will be buying a Comma 4 in the near future. I'm ready for some help on my long commute which I appear stuck with for another 6-8 years, and I won't be switching to a newer Rivian until they've...
  13. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    If I decide I want the longitudinal control later, how much of a pain is it to install Luka's upgraded harness from the default Comma one?
  14. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    Forgive my ignorance - haven't seen this in the 20+ pages I've read so far and couldn't find anything searching... why not?
